View SamplesRNAseq profiling of 10 time points during germination in Arabidopsis, from freshly harvested seed, through mature seed, stratification, germination and to post-germination. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from Arabidopsis seeds at 10 time points during germination in triplicate. The time points were: freshly harvested seed (H), seeds following 15 days of ripening (0 h), seeds after; 1 h of stratification (1 h S), 12 h of stratification (12 h S), 48 h of stratification (48 h S), followed by seed collected 1 hour into the light (1 h SL), 6 hours into the light (6 h SL), 12 hours into the light (12 h SL), 24 hours into the light (24 h SL) and 48 hours into the light (48 h SL).

View SamplesParathyroid hormone (PTH) plays an essential role in regulating calcium and bone homeostasis in the adult, but whether PTH is required at all for regulating fetal-placental mineral homeostasis is uncertain. To address this we treated Pth-null mice in utero with 1 nmol PTH (1-84) or saline and examined placental calcium transfer 90 minutes later. It was found that placental calcium transfer increased in Pth-null fetuses treated with PTH as compared to Pth-null fetuses treated with saline. Subsequently, to determine the effect of PTH treatment on placental gene expression, in a separate experiment, 90 minutes after the fetal injections the placentas were removed for subsequent RNA extraction and microarray analysis.

View SamplesMost tumors are epithelial-derived, and although disruption of polarity and aberrant cellular junction formation is a poor prognosticator in human cancer, the role of polarity determinants in oncogenesis is poorly understood. Using in vivo selection, we identified a mammalian orthologue of the Drosophila polarity regulator crumbs as a gene whose loss of expression promotes tumor progression. Immortal baby mouse kidney epithelial (iBMK) cells selected in vivo to acquire tumorigenicity displayed dramatic repression of crumbs3 (crb3) expression associated with disruption of tight junction formation, apicobasal polarity, and contact-inhibited growth. Restoration of crb3 expression restored junctions, polarity and contact inhibition, while suppressing migration and metastasis. These findings suggest a role for mammalian polarity determinants in suppressing tumorigenesis that may be analogous to the well-studied polarity tumor suppressor mechanisms in Drosophila.

View SamplesPurpose: To identify the impact of thermoneutral housing as opposed to standard housing on gene expression profiles in the mouse peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), focusing on proinflammatory immune responses and high-fat diet induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease pathogenesis. Methods: Expression profiles from PBMCs collected from C57Bl6 mice fed chow or high-fat diet for 8 weeks, following 2 weeks at either standard or thermoneutral housing conditions. Sequencing was performed in duplicate, the Illumina HiSeq 2500. Transcripts that passed quality filters were analyzed at the gene level, using Strand NGS for accurate alignment and quantification. Results: We mapped approximately 20million reads per sample to the mm10 genome using annotations produced by Ensembl, which represented 36186 transcripts. Approximately 14000 genes exhibited reasonable expression in at least one experimental condition. The primary focus was the effect of housing temperature while holding diet consistent (i.e. thermoneutral vs standard, both on high-rat diet), where ~2700 genes exhibited differential regulation. Conclusions: We present the transcriptomic profile of PBMCs from mice fed chow of high-fat diets, following either standard or thermoneutral housing. We obseve an augmented proinflammatory immune response. Overall design: PBMC expression profiles were characterized following eight weeks of chow or high-fat diet, following two weeks of standard or thermoneutral housing.
